Online Functional Skills in Maths Course

Maths Functional Skills is for learners who are looking to obtain the essential maths skills, knowledge and understanding to enable them to confidently and effectively carry out tasks at work and in their everyday life.

Generally, functional skills qualifications offer a softer and more flexible approach to obtaining a nationally recognised qualification suitable for further education, college, university or employment instead of taking GCSE Qualifications.

How does it work?

Diagnostic Assessment to look at all of the different elements you are competent in and which areas require more work

Interactive Learning Resources will be provided based on your diagnostic assessment. You will be given information, practice quizzes and assessments

Skills Checks are carried out after each learning resource is complete. These will quiz you at the end of any of the course modules to ensure you have gained all of the knowledge required for that particular topic

Exam Practice Papers will be provided once you have worked through all of the learning resources and are working at your desired level. You will complete 2 papers which one of our experienced tutors will mark and give you feedback on.

Your examination will be scheduled on a date that is best suited for yourself. You will come to our centre in London to sit it.

Course Duration

On average the course can be completed in 6 weeks, based on 3-4 hours of study a week.

However, The Learning Station offers a flexible approach and, with every learner receiving a tailor made Individual Skills Plan, your tutor will help you to get qualified at a pace that suits your needs.

The course will be available for up to 6 months once purchased.

Payment

If you decide to purchase our Maths and English in functional skills courses, we can spread the payments over 4 equal Months with no additional charges. Please call us for more information. If you choose to do only one of those courses, you will have to pay in one, full payment.

What will you study?

The diagnostic test will determine how much and what you need to study on your course. If you are working at Entry Level and would like to obtain the qualification at Level 2, we will allow you to work through our e-learning course and use our resources and receive support until you meet your target.

The course content of our functional skills in Maths course includes:

Working with numbers (adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing)
